About
Experience creation is the thread that connects everything that I do.
My Story
It all began when I was 14 years old, making beer in the basement. I would dream up recipes, brew them, and share them with my friends. My dreams grew as I designed beer brands and hospitality business models, like the B&B&B&B, the Bed and Breakfast, Brewery and Board. A chain of snow and surf hotels that would incorporate local culture and ingredients.
After a decade of building my skills in the hospitality business, I wanted to exit the industry of leisure. I wanted to do something perhaps more impactful than hosting exciting events or designing restaurant menus. I decided to get into education, inspiring kids to embrace their creativity, and preparing them to pursue their aspirations.
